Manual steps after the Sharegate migration

After you have migrated your site to a new tenant, you’ll have to perform a few steps manually.

How-To fix a sapiens SharePoint site after migration

Here are the steps per target site. Our recommendation is to test it once on a test site to see if everything works as expected.

1. Open one of the Sapiens list and click on ‘Sapiens App Settings’.

Alternatively, navigate to “https://addins.sharepointsapiens.com/evm/pages/siterepair.aspx?SPHostUrl=https://[company].sharepoint.com/sites/[yoursite]&SPUseMSAL=1” manually. Make sure the URL in the SPHostUrl parameter is correct.

2. Now you should see something like this:

Click on the link in the yellow box. If it doesn’t show the error and the yellow box, you already approved the Entra ID permissions. In this case you can navigate to the following site directly: https://addins.sharepointsapiens.com/evm/pages/siterepair.aspx?SPHostUrl=https://72vjyb.sharepoint.com/sites/ContentType&SPUseMSAL=1 (make sure the SPHostUrl is correct). In this case you can skip the next two steps and carry on with Step 5.

3. Click on ‘Sign in’ or ‘Authorize’ and approve the Entra ID permissions

4. On the next screen click on ‘Check Site Health’.

5. Click on ‘Repair site’

6. Once it’s done, it will open the app settings page. Here you can verify the settings, or as I mentioned yesterday, you can also send me a mapping from old sites to new sites and I’ll make sure the settings are transferred over. The only thing that cannot be transferred over is the Exchange email account (in case the 3rd email option was in use in your source tenant). The email account must be an Exchange account in your new tenant that will be used to send and receive emails.
